The maiden Nigerian Online Merit Award (NiOMA)
will hold on Friday, July 13, 2018, at the Main Hall of Lagos Sheraton Hotel,
Ikeja, reports ITRealms.
The organisers made this
disclosure to ITRealms, noting the event had been
originally scheduled for May 18, but was postponed due to the Ramadan and party
congresses, which altered the plans of some of the key personalities expected
to grace the event.
“We are happy to announce Friday, July 13 as the
new date for the much-anticipated NiOMA. The nominees for the different
categories will be unveiled in the days ahead as we count down to what promises
to be an evening of glitz, glamour and intellectual combat. The event starts by
6pm and will be a celebration of some of the key drivers of the Nigerian
internet revolution,” NiOMA Organising Committee Chairman, Mr. Lanre
Alabi, said in a statement issued in Lagos.
He restated that Honourable Minister for
Communications, Barr. Adebayo Shittu, and Africa’s Serial Digital Entrepreneur,
Leo Stan Ekeh, will headline the event while former Executive Vice Chairman of
the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC), Dr. Ernest Ndukwe, would serve as
chairman.
The occasion, according to the NiOMA Organising
Committee Chairman, “will be used to X-ray topical ICT issues facing the
nation. It will be a grand one as it will attract senior executives, top
government functionaries, industry leaders, market analysts, professional
groups and diverse economy sectoral leaders, among others.”
A brainchild of Nigeria’s leading daily online
newspaper, News Express
Nigeria, NiOMA is designed to celebrate outstanding individuals and
corporates driving the Nigerian online revolution.
